Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0400909A2] A processing circuit is provided for use in an optical combustion monitor for an internal combustion engine. The circuit has a variable gain amplifier (1) for amplifying a signal from one or more opto-electric transducers (7) sensitive to combustion light in the engine cylinders. A gain control circuit (4, 5, 6) including a peak detector (4) controls the variable gain amplifier (1) so that the peak amplitude of the amplifier output signals is substantially constant.
